Cycling 3:15:00 [3]
To Chain of Rocks on IL side, back on MO side. Trail is in very good shape -- all mud/dirt has been swept. Only the trash on McKinley bridge bike lane marred the ride. Fortunately, CoR bridge had been reopened -- I'd forgotten to check. They have repaired the many rough joints - ride is smoother & safer. Also painted the fence on both sides (new?).
Long (40 miles) and hot (90), so labeled it "3". Stopped at gas station and later at Broadway Oyster Bar to hydrate, one Brown Ale also.
